[edit] Transportation
As part of the Melbourne 2030 planning policy Ringwood became a designated 'Transit City' as a push to locate higher-density development near public transport facilities. The designation of Ringwood as a Transit City prompted community concerns over a lack of community consultation leading rise to the creation of the Ringwood Transit City Community Coalition (RTCCC).
Ringwood has a railway station that is an interchange for the Belgrave and Lilydale lines.
